Gaspari Plasmajet log sponsored by SBMuscle.com
Thanks to SBMuscle for giving me the Plasmajet to log.
First the product... Gaspari Nutrition PlasmaJet, 30 Day Supply Kit Massive Muscle Pumps Increases Gains in Lean Muscle Mass, Strength and Stamina Increased Vascularity Stimulates Glycogen Building in Skeletal Muscle Maximum Vasodilation Increased Uptake of Amino Acids and Other Nutrients Increased Male Sexual Performance Post Cycle Therapy Powerhouse Serving Size: 1 pack(s) Servings Per Container: 16 Amount Per Serving: Calories 15.00 Calories from Fat 0.00 Total Fat 0.00 g 0% Total Carbohydrate 1.20 g 0% Protein 2.50 g 5% Vitamin C (as Ascorbic Acid) 1600.00 mg 2667% Gaspari Proprietary Vaso Expansion Sustained Release and Nitro production formula 3402.00 mg Arginine Blend (Arginine Dichloride Calcium Arginine Chelate) Epimedium Extract (Standardized for 50% Icariin) Gynostemma pentaphyllum Extract (Standardized for 95% Gypenosides) Salvia miltiorrhiza Extract Nicotinamide Adenosine Dinucleotide Hydride (NADH) Gaspari Proprietary Hypertrophic Vaso Expansion Support Formula 466.00 mg Peak ATP Adenosine-5-triphosphate Disodium Salt Inositol Hexanicotinate R-alpha Lipoic Acid Red Wine Extract (Standardized for 90% Polyphenols) Gaspari Proprietary Immediate Release Enhancement Formula 3510.00 mg Glycerol Rhodiola rosea Root Extract (Standardized to 5% total Rosavins) Theobromide Now onto me, a brief history... I am not a bodybuilder (sorry) I was and, to a lesser extent, still an athlete. I played some college hockey, but have been involved in sports my whole life. Post college I took a break, got fat, and got serious about diet and training. I picked hockey back up and unfortnately had to stop training an playing to have two hip surgeries (remove bone spurs, remove labrums and reshape the femoral heads to fix the dysplasia). During rehab I herniated 2 discs in my back and devloped tendonitis, so obviously it has been fun. I was cleared for activity (lifting) in September and have made good gains since then (after 8 months of rehab, and almost a year off due to pain management). Strenght is slowly, but steadilt coming back, size is slow as well, but its coming.Diet - I am in a full on bulking mode and will continue to do so during this log, it wont always be clean or pretty, but it sure is fun. Training - I am switching it up for this log and starting the German Volume Training program. This routine alone should lead to decent pumps, so with the plasmajet, I should see excellent results with respect to pumps. This will be 3 days a week. Supplementation - The Plasmajet will be taken on workout days only and will last 5 weeks. I spoke to some Gaspari guys and they suggest taking it 2-3 hours pre workout. Pre workout I take 8-beta anabol + creatine mono. Post workout I take cytomax + whey + eaa's + additional leucine. Misc wise I take an antioxidant complex and Animal Flex. History of similar products - I have taken shock therapy, ragnarok, xceed, steel edge, white blood, blueprint, arginine and no limits. i am somewhat desensitized to pump products and of that list, the only one that worked consistently at the recommended dose is no limits. the others either didnt produce much, or it didnt last more than a week. |

misc daily supps: 1 pack Animal Flex 1 pack of Plasmajet approx 3 hours pre workout pre workout: 1 packet 8-Beta Anabol 5g Creatine Mono during workout: water post workout: 1 scoop primal eaa 1.5 scoop cytomax 5g leucine 1 scoop Isokool The Workout GVT Chest/Back Exercise Tempo Sets Reps Rest A1-Decline Dumb bell Press (semi suppinated) 4020 10x10 90 secs A2-Chin Ups 4020 10x10 90secs (FAILED TEMPO - Chin Ups 3rd s after 5 reps) B1-Incline Dumb bell Flyes 3020 3x10-12 60secs B2-One Arm DB Rows 3020 3x10-12 60secs Thoughts so today was my first workout in a week, and i decided it is as good a time as any to start the German Volume Training for 12+ weeks. i guessed at the weights as it is supposed to be 60% of your 1RM, being as i completed all the reps with timing i will bump the weight up a bit. it was just a brutal workout. i knew the chins would be an issue. the plasmajet is a lot of pills. i took it 3+ hours preworkout and had a nice pump, but considering the amount of reps i did, i would hope i had a nice pump. vascularity was good, i did get a second wind during the workout, so who knows. ill monitor how long the pump lasts (i already think it is beyond my typical post workout pump).todays soundtrack: worked at home, didnt listen to anything. |

Also started taking plasmajet today. No weird effects that I've noticed. But did notice a pretty good pump.. A bit more then normal compared to other NO products I've taken. We'll see if I still have the same feel tomorrow, as I'm not suppose to take another does until wednesday.

This was a grueling workout, no puking, but i did get fatigued several times. i will bump the weights up, but how my hips act in the next few days will dictate how much. no pump of note on the legs, no vascularity. todays soundtrack: At the Drive In - Relationship of Command and a little of Blindside - A Thought Crushed My Mind |

no sides to speak of, just a sustained pump. i havent tried it back to back days. i would guess that would be the way to experience sides.

Good journal.
Seems like you're getting some gains with the Plasmajet that I've never felt with NO-Xplode or something of the sort. |

too early to tell for gains, but it will deliver a sustained pump, which is as advertised. the pumps are enornmous, (i get better pumps with another product), but they are good, and long.

The Juliana Theory - Do You Believe Me? (4:34) 15. Silent Majority - Salvation (2:31) 16. Nirvana - Frances Farmer will have her revenge on Seatle (4:05) random thoughts i was very sore sunday from my 4 hours hockey marathon, so i pushed this workout off until today, which means to keep my schedule i will workout again tomorrow. this also means i will use the plasmajet on back to back days, which is a no-no, so i am anxious to see what kind of pumps i get in my legs. honestly so far, i am experiencing decent pumps from plasmajet, and they last for several hours. but the pumps are not outstanding, or not on par with no limits, which seems to be the product i react best to. maybe i am just resistant to these typed of supplements, and would require a higher dose for better pumps. it will remain a theory, i am not taking 15 or 20 pills for a better pump. |

I remember using NO Limits and at full dose the pumps were insane. People describe skin bursting pumps and I finally knew what they meant. But the pump only lasted for 3 hours at most. So this product provides a more marginal pump but lasts longer?

if you want to use NOL as a benchmark and say thats a 10 with respect to pumps, i would give plasmajet a 6 or 7, but the pumps will last much longer.
